ME: i am your servant. where else shall my money flow?
SB: CHINA GLAZE METRO COLLECTION
SB: NOT LIKE YOU'D KNOW METRO LIVING IN POVERTYVILLE BUTTFUCK, BUT WHATEVER
SB: IT WAS $40 ON CLEARANCE BUT I'LL SEND IT YOUR WAY FOR $20 AND NUDES
ME: done! whatever your heart desires. i will send you erotic pictures posthaste.

    1. for some reason, sally beauty didn't feel like they saw a need to process the refund at the same time they cancelled that portion of the order--and they still haven't. it took them nearly a week to process the order proper, so i imagine they'll get around to the refund another week from now.

      sometimes it is very hard being a proper adult.

    1. for real! this sort of thing used to not surprise me, but i've had such a long run of businesses being really on the ball with their shit that even minor inconveniences and stock mix-ups are now these giant affairs.
